If I ever run out of nautilus coils and can't find them I'll try making coils. I told myself I would make coils this winter and so far I haven't. I have rebuildable nautilus rba for the prime x. LOL they just sit haunting me. I have to go thaw out a freezer and make sure the hubs doesn't touch my nicotine. Later!

I decided to prime the wicks with base. In the past I've filled KFLs with dry wicks and no matter how long I leave them they seem to end up a bit burned.

I have a dozen on the rack, built and ready to go. But I do leave them dry until I want to use them. Then, on the build base (or mod), open up and douse the wick, fire a few times, rewet and fire some more. No new wick taste, no dry hits :)

I’ve got over 650 flavors. I keep a master list of what case, side of case, and slot number each is in. I can grab my list and have any flavor ready to mix in a minute or less. I am not good normally at organizing but got sick of searching for flavors when I wanted to mix. I knew if I didn’t get organized then I wouldn’t want to mix.

Likewise. And I also put the case/side/slot number on each bottle, makes putting them away easier :)

Another sucky thing is Betty White died today @99. I really was hoping for her to live to celebrate 100. I don't know her personally but do know she loved animals.
Yep. 2021, glad you're over. You robbed Betty of her 100th birthday special planned with tons of stars and interviews.
R.I.P. Betty White.

    My wife just told me about that. I loved her in every tv show or movie I’ve seen her in.

    Things have turned around. My wife asked if I wanted to stay home and I said I kinda do and she said that’s fine. She might go over for a little bit by herself but said I had the perfect excuse since I got my booster yesterday. I don’t want to keep her from visiting her friend so think she should go. They are going bowling after dinner and my wife said there’s no way she was going since her knee has been acting up. Our kids grew up together for several years but I’ve never liked the husband. Our youngest daughters were hanging out some this week and mentioned how their family is going out to eat almost every day. I just feel like they aren’t being as careful as they should with the new variant raging. Not really my place to say anything.

    I have 140 flavors, I can't imagine having 650, I would be long gone from this earth before I could try them all.

    A few years back I did the calculations. Looked through the bottles and guessed how much liquid was in each one. Multiplied the total by 10 since I use about 10% flavoring and divided by my monthly consumption. It came out that I had enough flavoring for 6 years vaping. I would have guessed more than that. Think I had about 40 bottles then and some of them were 4oz and some were small sample bottles.

    Some bottles went in the trash because I stopped using them. Some went off with age. A lot of flavors won't last 6 years. 650 flavors? Definitely past my life expectancy.

    I use some flavors repeatedly but like having the variety to be able to make most recipes I want to try with minor or no substitutions. I know they don’t last forever but most are 10ml bottles so not a huge loss.
